Remove-RpcClientAccess

Module:

ExchangePowerShell

Applies to:

Exchange Server 2010

This cmdlet is available only in Exchange Server 2010.

Use the Remove-RpcClientAccess cmdlet to remove the configuration information that allows RPC access through the Client Access server role on Microsoft Exchange Server 2010. After you remove the configuration information, the Exchange RPC Client Access service stops and no longer starts.

For information about the parameter sets in the Syntax section below, see Exchange cmdlet syntax.

Syntax

Remove-RpcClientAccess
      -Server <ServerIdParameter>
      [-Confirm]
      [-DomainController <Fqdn>]
      [-WhatIf]
      [<CommonParameters>]

Description

Disabling RPC client access on a server blocks all RPC access through the specified Client Access server. Therefore, RPC clients (for example, clients running Microsoft Office Outlook 2007) with mailboxes on any mailbox databases configured to use the specified Client Access server won't be able to connect.

You need to be assigned permissions before you can run this cmdlet. Although this topic lists all parameters for the cmdlet, you may not have access to some parameters if they're not included in the permissions assigned to you. To find the permissions required to run any cmdlet or parameter in your organization, see Find the permissions required to run any Exchange cmdlet.

Examples

Example 1

Remove-RpcClientAccess -Server CAS01

This example removes the configuration information for the Exchange RPC Client Access service for the Client Access server CAS01. Performing this action also shuts down the Exchange RPC Client Access service on the Client Access server CAS01.

Parameters

-Confirm

The Confirm switch specifies whether to show or hide the confirmation prompt. How this switch affects the cmdlet depends on if the cmdlet requires confirmation before proceeding.

• Destructive cmdlets (for example, Remove-* cmdlets) have a built-in pause that forces you to acknowledge the command before proceeding. For these cmdlets, you can skip the confirmation prompt by using this exact syntax: -Confirm:$false.
• Most other cmdlets (for example, New-* and Set-* cmdlets) don't have a built-in pause. For these cmdlets, specifying the Confirm switch without a value introduces a pause that forces you acknowledge the command before proceeding.
